jesus luzardo

Las Vegas - Jesus Luzardo faced the Mets back in June and allowed only three hits and put six innings worth of bagels on the board. The New Yorkers shouldn't feel too bad because Luzardo has been doing it to almost all of the teams in the National League. But the main reason for picking the Phillies is picking against New York starter Sean Manaea. After a solid 12-6 season in 2024, Manaea has fallen off the proverbial cliff this season. He jumped into the starting rotation in July after suffering a strain in his right oblique muscle in spring training. Then during rehab, they found a loose body in his left elbow and he was shutdown again. That's probably why his recent results have been really ugly. Manaea has not won a game since July 23 and has been rocked for 22 hits and 17 earned runs over the last 19 innings for a bloated 8.05 ERA. Like the Phils tonight, but if they won last night, would slice the bet in half.
